The Voice Season 29 Battle Rounds: Intense Duets and Tough Decisions
The Voice Season 29 has moved on to the battle rounds after the blind auditions. Coaches Adam Levine, John Legend, and Kelly Clarkson each have 10 artists on their teams. In this round, the coaches paired up their singers for head-to-head duets, with only one artist moving forward from each pairing. The coaches also had the option to steal an artist eliminated by another coach, with Clarkson having the super steal advantage.

The first night of performances featured Liv Ciara and Mikenley Brown singing "Focus" by H.E.R. Clarkson ultimately chose Mikenley as the winner, but both Legend and Levine tried to steal Liv. Clarkson used her super steal to keep Liv on her team.
Levine paired Bay Simpson and Hunter Jordan for a performance of "I'm the Problem" by Morgan Wallen. Despite leaning towards Hunter, Levine chose Bay as the winner. Team Legend's AJ Robinson and Lucas West sang "Wanted" by Hunter Hayes, with Legend choosing Lucas over AJ.
